The original sentence in in the imperative mood. This mood is used to give commands, orders, suggestions, or to make requests. Another example of a sentence in the imperative mood is: Don't open the door.
According to the instructions, we must change the sentence into the interrogative mood. This is the mood used to ask questions. To do that without changing the general meaning of the sentence, we can simply add "could you" at the beginning. It makes the sentence interrogative but maintains the request:

PowerPoint application can be defined as a software application or program designed and developed by Microsoft, to avail users the ability to create various slides containing textual and multimedia informations that can be used during a presentation.
Some of the features available on Microsoft PowerPoint are narrations, transition effects, custom slideshows, animation effects, formatting options etc.
Presentation can be defined as an act of talking or speaking formally to an audience in order to explain an idea, piece of work, project, and product with the aid of multimedia resources or samples.
Basically, any speaker who wish to create an effective presentation should endeavor to interact frequently with the audience by holding a conversation.
An index card can be defined as a small card (usually measuring 4 inches by 6 inches or 3 inches by 5 inches) that are used for recording informations, mostly in an alphabetical order. This card was developed in 1760 by Carl Linnaeus and is essentially suitable for presentations because they can be used to store discrete data such as addresses, notes, telephone numbers, etc.
Hence, using index cards will improve a presentation because they keep the presenter from reading the speech, as he would only have to look at the jotted points or piece of information.

People are trying to save the rain forests and woodlands where the chimps live from being cut down. It will take many people working together to solve this problem. Group of answer choices Description Cause/effect Chronological order Compare/contrast Problem/solution Sequence

e. Problem and Solution: it describes a problem and proffers a solution using signal words such as dilemma, solve, problem, etc.
From the passage, we learnt that wild chimpanzees are rapidly disappearing.
However, some people are trying to solve this problem. Otherwise, chimpanzees may go into extinction and perhaps exist only in zoos.
The solution proffered by the people is to save the rain forests and woodlands where the chimps live (habitat) from being cut down.
Hence, the text structure used in the above paragraph is a problem-solution structure.

I began last week to permit my wife to sit at dinner with me, at the farthest end of a long table; and to answer (but with the utmost brevity) the few questions I asked her. Which satirical element is most dominant in the passage above? allegory innuendo irony simile
Answer:
B). Innuendo
Explanation:
'Innuendo' is described as the satirical form in which the author provides 'a derogatory hint or reference to a person or thing for an implication or intimation.
In the given excerpt, 'innuendo' is the satirical component that governs the passage. This is reflected through the disparaging tone of the passage where the speaker seems to belittle his wife(permit my wife...sit...at the farthest end of the table...answer...with brevity). This abandonment displays his indirect but obvious conclusion from the salacious criticism that he makes about his wife. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
Answer:
IRONY

Vern was assigned by his mentor to collect data at the same early-morning
time every day of the week. Vern attended a football game and then
partied with friends on Saturday night. As a result, Vern overslept on
Sunday morning and did not collect data at the schedule time. Vern
decided to report some fake data for Sunday morning, reasoning that his
mentor would not notice.
1. Is this falsification, fabrication, or plagiarism? Why?
2. What consequences could Vern be facing?
3. What ways can you suggest to avoid Vern from faking his data?

Clara is a member of a lab group in which everyone uses variations of the
same experimental methods. In the first draft of her dissertation, Clara
appropriated original phrases from one of her mentor’s publications to
describe her experimental methods. Clara was not concerned because she
knew that her mentor used exactly the same wording in multiple
publications.
1. Is this falsification, fabrication, or plagiarism? Why?
2. What consequences could Clara be facing?
3. How would you tell your members/classmates that this is not a good
practice?
Bobby, a researcher working in a laboratory, offers to his colleagues that
he will do the last part of the experiment for their research study. However,
when another member ran another trial for the experiment alone, the
findings was way different from the data given by Bobby. He told Bobby
about this and he got frantic and could not tell why the findings are so
different. For Bobby, he just wants to prove others that their hypothesis is
correct, even if it means that he would have to “make the data work”.
1. Is this falsification, fabrication, or plagiarism? Why?
2. What consequences could Bobby be facing?
3. How will you prevent this type of scenario in your future lab?
My research advisor has selected the data to include in my research paper.
I believe in the results of my experiment; it is just that not all of my trials
worked and I do not feel confident about that. My advisor would often tell
me that when my experiments are not consistent, I just have to put the
data in my drawer and ‘let it sit’ until I find out what the problem is. She
says it may take some time, years to be exact, to figure it out but you can’t
wait that long to publish your work.
1. Do you think the research advisor gave a good advice? Why?
2. Should you also indicate the number of trials you did in your research
paper? Why?
3. How would you teach someone doing research study that omitting data is
not a good practice?
